New Florida Law Affects Thousands of Drivers

Since we are so active in the state of Florida, we follow driving laws there closely to ensure that we are always up to code. A recent law passed by Florida’s state government does not immediately concern our business; however, we believe any international tourists visiting the state need to be aware of it. The law deems many of them invalid drivers, and this is detrimental for two reasons: it can result both in fines and other legal difficulties for affected drivers and it may also mean they will not be able to collect on their insurance in the event of an accident.

Specifics of the Law

It is now necessary in the state of Florida, as of the first of the year, to hold an international driver’s permit from one’s home nation to legally use the roadways.

The new legislation was intended to solve problems law enforcement was having with driver licenses in foreign languages. However, because the law was written so broadly, tourists and other visitors to the state with permits in English must now obtain the international paperwork as well to stay legal and ensure insurance coverage.

Timeline & Current Enforcement

According to the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA), the law may be in effect until summer 2013. Their office has completed tens of thousands of international permit applications in the weeks following their announcement.

The Florida Highway Patrol is not enforcing the new rule and is asking city and county police forces to do the same.
